Would the parasitism experiment produce plaques if the only change to the experiment was to use human lung cells in place of the E. coli? Why or Why not? No, plaques would not form because the T2 bacteriophage cannot infect human lung cells. Yes, plaques would form because the human lung cells will infect the T2 bacteriophage. No, plaques would not form because the human lung cells will participate in synergism with the T2 bacteriophage. Yes, plaques would form because the T2 bacteriophage can infect any living cell type. QUESTION 7 In this exercise when we looked at amensalism, the zone of inhibition is best described as an area of Definite bacterial death Absence of bacterial growth Bacterial growth Enhanced acid production
